Few pics from Oulton on Friday, taken by the Track Photo guys. And the rest. http://s38.photobucket.com/albums/e128/pye21/Rallye%202/Oulton%2025-1-08/

The OMP ones dont fit, its the wrong thread. I sold Peperami his and he sold it to ben. I orginally got it of ebay brand new, so keep an eye out, there was another that sold on there the week before i got mine.

Central Blast Cleaners in Banbury.

I wouldn't be using the chequerplate, its far to slippy for my tastes. Just use griptape on the floor. Like mine.

His open mk2 escort a little special!! He can pedal it as well, ugly fucker though!!

Was banner doing the Historic this year then? He normally does post?

Some more excellant pics there!! What car was Bannister in?

Top pic is awesome!!! This is the first year i have missed it since this rally started, i was in Germany at the ring for a wasted weekend!!!

Is there a spec or more pics of the Variant 2 anywhere???

ET49 but with 5mm spacers will fit 182's Mag versions as well. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/15-Speedline-Corse-2020-Magnesium-Wheels-Vauxhall_W0QQitemZ290169268119QQihZ019QQcategoryZ9888QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Nos should not be taken lightly, what you think is a very small amount can have massive repurcutions with your engine. An engine that is build to run NOS will run a lower compression ratio like a turbo or supercharged engine, just sticking it on and hoping for the best with a standard bottom end...

Tweeks will do them, check cobone lorraines catalogue on there website.

Google is your friend http://www.knighton-tools.co.uk/acatalog/Chemical_Blacking_Solution.html#a181_2d500MLS

Buy all your rivets and get somebody to chemically black them or buy a kit yourself. Its a 4 (if i remember right) stage process and can be done on any clean metal, looks loads better than anodised.

Wait until you have used them, then say the same thing. My compbrake didn't catch when just the wheel was on the hub, soon as the load of the car was put on them they started to catch the wheel weights, then under braking the mounts were flexing catching the wheels.

Galfer are the only ones i have seen in standard size. If you aren't bothered about the dust cobone lorraine do pads for those calipers, about £60 from memory.

Loads better than 16's, plus tyres are half the cost!!

The SPARCO ones are attached right behind the driver, its hard to see on the image but they are there (there set for LHD on that pic). You can just use the rear horizontal bar on the caged one, or if you asked them i am sure they will provide you with a specific one.

Have you had it fitted ben? What make is it? Who fitted it?

A few as she was!!

Im off again in November to a circuit days trackday (see below) and i will be booking my hotel for easter next year when im there, if anyone fancies it let me know. http://www.circuit-days.co.uk/event_details.php?venue_id=&event_id=107

Try someone like west wales rally spares, they do loads of Mk2 Escort stuff. Even try Rally Design, should have them. Ring Caged, Custom Cages etc.

Proper spec race 197!!! Check out the website on the pic, loads more awesome VLN pics in there!!

I can recommend them, top brakes!!

Probably be nearer 10k i think, but 'should' be do-able.

Why couldn't you lower it yourself?

I had to drop my paradas down to 25psi to prevent stupid amounts of understeer on my last trackday.

Don't undo the arms, ^^ loads easier.

Its easier with both front wheels off the ground at once, they use a bit of force, or a lever bar to manuovre the hub to the strut.
